On St. Andrew's Day music will be removed in the barracks to make parties more inclusive
- On Saturday, between 17:00 and 19:00, music will be removed so that people with special needs can enjoy the barracks. Furthermore, cards will be distributed for people with functional diversity, so that they do not have to stand in line in the barracks. Cards are already available.
Following the path started in the Andramarieta festivities, the City Hall has adopted a series of measures to make the San Andrés festivities more inclusive. On the one hand, on Saturday, St. Andrew's Day, music will be suppressed in the barracks between 17:00 and 19:00 hours to ensure "the best possible conditions" to people with hearing hypersensitivity. As you have indicated, the measure has been agreed with the Blue Tide association, which supports the initiative.
On the other hand, cards will be distributed for people with functional diversity in the coming days, with the aim of avoiding queues in the barracks. These cards are already available at the City Hall Citizen Service, from 07:30 to 15:30 hours.
The municipality has explained that these measures aim to "facilitate people with functional diversity to enjoy the holidays" and to give "normality and continuity" to the path taken by women.
